I am rushing. How can one not like dogs when they see this?

Had to share this one. Female golden Lab with a little Downs Syndrome boy who has likely never seen a dog up close before.
The dog is so gentle and keeps trying to engage the child. What a beautiful animal! If you only see one e-mail this week - hope this is the one.

NZ TV Ad


'Mammoth™ Modern Insulation' TVC -- Nikolai




Published on Oct 20, 2012

Meet Prince Nikolai Stroganov III, the ultimate warmth lover. Nikolai lives the life of luxury, complete with servants, porcelain bowls and lots of lovely Mammoth™ beds.

To help create our warmth-loving cat we drew inspiration and reference from a variety of internet cat memes - and our own pets.

The result was a Russian cat named Nikolai who dislikes the cold and feels vastly superior to his 'servant' owners.

This is the first in a series of Mammoth™ 'Nikolai' ads - we'll post the new ones on this channel as they go to air.

Mammoth™ Modern Insulation is 100% polyester. It is made using material from recycled plastic bottles, exactly the same material found in many pillows and duvet inners. It contains no glues or formaldehyde and is safe (for cats and people!) and easy to handle, requiring no protective clothing or masks. It does not break down or lose its loft over time.

To find out more about 'Mammoth™ Modern Insulation' visit mammoth.co.nz or phone 0800 MAMMOTH.

Nice sculpture of a Cat.

Image

Bonded bronze. 3 1/4''H x 1 1/2''W x 2 1/4''D.

Met Museum of Art. Maybe $35. or close to that.

Description
Our reproduction is based on an original Egyptian sculpture from the Late Dynastic period (712–332 B.C.), now in the Museum's collection. The bronze cat figure, found in Saqqara, is hollow, indicating that it was probably used as a container for mummified remains. In its subtle modeling and stylized features, the sculptor has captured the lithe aloofness and dignity characteristic of the feline. A collar is engraved around the neck, from which is suspended an wedjat-eye pectoral for protection and well-being.

Art History
Sacred to Bastet, the goddess of joy and fertility, cats were particularly revered in the Late Dynastic and Ptolemaic periods, when this goddess reached the peak of her importance as a national divinity. Figures of seated cats in wood, bronze, and faience were presented as offerings in her temples, or served as containers for the mummified bodies or bones of the animals buried in special cat cemeteries. Cats were first domesticated by the Egyptians in the Middle Kingdom for their mouse- hunting abilities. By New Kingdom times they had also become household companions. In tomb scenes they frequently appear seated beneath the chairs of their owners or on sporting boats in the Nile marshes, where they flush out birds for their masters. For the Egyptians, the goddesses Bastet and Sakhmet were two aspects of divine power. Sakhmet, the lioness, represented dangerous, potentially destructive forces. Bastet, the feline of the house, incorporated the benevolent aspects of a deity that could be pacified by rituals.

Here are pictures of many cat breeds. Maybe you can find where your baby's "roots" come from.
Just scroll down. I think they are all so beautiful.
